We have another new entry in the classic car auction business: Auctionata, established early in 2012 in Berlin, Germany, and primarily as an art auction house, will stage its first sale of classic cars via an online event November 28.

Those cars range from a 1966 Volvo Amazon and 1968 Triumph Spitfire, each estimated to be in the $6,200 to $13,000 range, to a 1919 Rolls Royce Silver Ghose Alpine Eagle ($186,000 to $375,000), a 1929 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Sport ($225,000 to $450,000), and a 1997 Porsche 911 Gemballa Extremo Speedster ($375,000 to $750,000).

“Auctionata is an auction house that sells not only works of art such as paintings and sculptures, but also successfully auctions luxury items and collectables, such as watches, jewelry and wine,” said Wolfgang Jochum, Auctionata’s director of new business.

“Classic cars is an obvious addition to our portfolio,” he added. “Hence we see the upcoming auction as a great opportunity to tap into this category in the future. However, we are aware that we still have to make a name for ourselves in this field and gauge how this type of auction is received by our customers.”

Auctionata was founded in February 2012 by Alexander Zacke and Georg Untersalmberger in a building on Berlin’s historic Kurfurstendamm. Since then, the company has added offices in Rome, Zurich, London and recently in New York.
